Lindy
An AI teammate that lives in Slack and acts across your tools, with approvals built in.
Group: Work and business agents
Lindy describes an AI teammate that lives in Slack and knows what your company knows. Everyone gets a private Lindy in DMs and a shared one in channels. Its docs list answering questions across tools, multi-step actions and creating decks, sheets and reports.
The decision in plain English
Lindy says nothing with outside impact, such as sending an email or updating a ticket, happens without approval, while read-only lookups from approved sources do not need it. Pricing is credit-based: $29.99 per user per month for 3,000 credits, with top-ups at $10 per 1,000.
Best fit
Teams who want an assistant in Slack that does work across their tools and asks before outward actions.
Poor fit
Solo users who do not use Slack, or teams that need a free plan beyond the 7-day trial credits.
